Sometimes you've got to take less now to get a lot more later. The same people moaning about Allen earning £8k for Ortiz are probably the one's moaning that he was on endless PPV cards and co headlining at the O2 and earning VERY nicely.
I just think whoever has Sky can't lose, it's such a big platform, adverts on every football match, constant all day on sky sports news, boxing tv programs on there, podcasts, specials, more people have it
Frank had Sky to be fair. But what did we get? Audley v Rogan on PPV, that terrible 'Magnificent Seven' card which sold about ten thousand buys, Khan against Prescott and Salita. If Frank had done the business with Sky he wouldn't have ended up where he is.
Was literally about to post that Hearn destroyed old fish eyes in that interview Interesting that Queensberry tried to sabotage the Matchroom show with bs grassing to the board of control. Warren is seriously rattled, I’m guessing due to the TV ratings.
Yeah, the timing looks desperate from Frank. I mean, why is he talking about Dubois v Whyte now? Dubois has a fight against Joyce later this year. Whyte has a fight with Povetkin that if he wins he’s mandatory for the Fury Wilder III winner. At best Dubois Whyte can’t happen for a long time. Joyce has just fought a week back, has Dubois coming up and Frank’s talking about him sorting something out with Chisora. For when? It would have been better if Frank contacted Hearn privately and they both came out to do some surprise press conference for the good of boxing. Something of a pipe dream but who knows. As it stands, this absolutely stinks of Frank doing the old ‘offer Hopkins/Johnson tuppence ha’penny, then when we get Mger Mkrtychan for Calzaghe we just say we made them an offer buy they turned it down.’ Oldest trick in the book.
Good response from Hearn. Have a little glimmer of hope Don't really get what he means why Whyte and Chisora can't fight Dubois and Joyce? Obviously it won't be next but back end of next year is possible surley?
I can see their 'bite to eat' lasting all of 5 seconds if all Hearn does is make snyde digs all the time. Frank is a hall of fame promoter and the boy should learn some respect. Remember how thinly spread Eddie's UK shows were last year!? Frank could be doing him a huge favour here and he might have just blown it.
Well Queensberry blocked Jenkins from earning a wage by fighting Benn, so it makes me think its a PR stunt or BT are running out of patience with the poor performance from the promotional partner.
Do you not remember Eddie getting slated last year for serving up domestic drivel? People have short memories it seems.
